Romans 7:18-21
For I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh. For the desire to do what is good is with me, but there is no ability to do it.For I do not do the good that I want to do, but I practice the evil that I do not want to do.Now if I do what I do not want, I am no longer the one that does it, but it is the sin that lives in me.So I discover this law: When I want to do what is good, evil is present with me.

Acts 13:4-12
So being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia, and from there they sailed to Cyprus.Arriving in Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. They also had John as their assistant.When they had traveled the whole island as far as Paphos, they came across a sorcerer, a Jewish false prophet named Bar-Jesus.He was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul and wanted to hear the word of God.But Elymas the sorcerer( that is the meaning of his name) opposed them and tried to turn the proconsul away from the faith.But Saul— also called Paul— filled with the Holy Spirit, stared straight at Elymasand said,“ You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery, you son of the devil and enemy of all that is right. Won’t you ever stop perverting the straight paths of the Lord?Now, look, the Lord’s hand is against you. You are going to be blind, and will not see the sun for a time.” Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him, and he went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.Then, when he saw what happened, the proconsul believed, because he was astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
